May 1st!
For most of us that means Spring has arrived – and depending on where you live, it may already seem like summer based on the temperature.
What does spring mean to and for you?
Spring cleaning
Cinco De Mayo
Mother’s Day
Memorial Day
The end of the school year
Summer vacation
Maybe it’s just the fifth month of the year and it is business as usual.
Being the fifth month of the year means we’re almost at the halfway mark of the year.
If you want to be ahead of the game, maybe you’ll even start to look at where you are based on your 2025 goals now. And make the proper adjustments.
It’s a great time to think strategy and look at your marketing plan for the second half of 2025.
What do you want to have accomplished at the end of the first half of this year?
What result do you want for the second half of the year?
And for the end of 2025?
See, if you don’t plan ahead…
If you aren’t shooting for something…
If you don’t have an end result in mind…
How will you know when you get there?
How will you know if you achieved your goals or not?
How will you know if you’re moving forward, backwards, or standing still?
You sometimes hear people talk about writing down your goals and then putting them away and not looking at them until the end of the year, and by some amazing phenomenon they’ve all come true.
I don’t come from that school of thought.
You have to have your goals clearly in front of you – so you know where you’re going.
You wouldn’t look at a map once if you were headed out on a trip and expect to get to your destination would you? (Thank goodness for GPS – we don’t have to read maps anymore).
Your business is the same way… your goals, your marketing calendar, your plans, are your roadmap – they are the GPS for your business.
Use them… everyday!
And, if you don’t have those business tools, let’s talk – I’ll help you put them together.
